IMBRUVICA® By Your Side
IMBRUVICA® By Your Side* provides access assistance, educational resources, and ongoing support to all eligible IMBRUVICA® patients and caregivers, regardless of insurance type or language preference.
By Your Side provides
patients with
education and support
beyond your office, to
help them start and
stay on track.
Financial guidance helps patients understand their financial situation and how to access IMBRUVICA®, whether they are government insured (Medicare or Medicaid), commercially insured, or uninsured. Insurance Specialists can explain costs and coverage, help patients estimate out-of-pocket expenses, and identify potential savings.
Can your patients save on IMBRUVICA®?
Commercially Insured
Eligible, commercially insured patients may pay as little as $0 per prescription‡ with an IMBRUVICA® By Your Side Copay Card.
Government Insured or Uninsured
For patients with government insurance—like Medicare or Medicaid—or no insurance, By Your Side helps find the right support and resources for their unique situation. We point your patients in the right direction.
IMBRUVICA® By Your Side Registered Nurses† are on-call to provide one-on-one support for patients and caregivers to help them stay on track. Registered Nurses always refer patients back to you if any medical issues arise; they never give medical advice. Interpreter services are available in all languages.
Educational resources are selected to support your patients' needs outside your office—such as understanding their disease and IMBRUVICA® treatment, learning how to take IMBRUVICA®, building a treatment routine, and preparing for doctor visits.
Encourage your patients to call the Nurse Support Line at 1-888-YourSide (1-888-968-7743) Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM-8:00 PM ET.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get the IMBRUVICA® Starter Kit for my patients?
You can get IMBRUVICA® Starter Kits from your Sales Representative. The specialty pharmacy may give them directly to your patients, as well.
What does a By Your Side Registered Nurse do?
Registered Nurses select resources to meet patients' unique needs—such as disease education and how to take IMBRUVICA®—and give them financial guidance. Registered Nurses help all eligible IMBRUVICA® patients—even if they're government insured (Medicare or Medicaid) or uninsured. Interpreter services are available in all languages. No medical advice is given by Registered Nurses, and they always refer patients back to you if any medical issues arise. Patients are advised to always talk to their healthcare provider and treatment team about any medical decisions and concerns they may have.
Beyond financial assistance, what services does By Your Side offer patients?
Your patients can also get one-on-one guidance and support from an IMBRUVICA® By Your Side Registered Nurse, who can help them start and stay on track with your treatment plan. Educational resources individually selected for patients can help them understand IMBRUVICA® and their disease, how to navigate insurance, and how to raise side effects with their HCP.
How much will my insured patients pay for IMBRUVICA®?
That depends on their insurance plan. Whether patients have government (Medicare or Medicaid), commercial, or no insurance, By Your Side can help them navigate their coverage and identify potential savings. Eligible, commercially insured patients may pay as little as $0 per prescription‡ with the IMBRUVICA® By Your Side Copay Card.
If my patient has no insurance, how can they pay for their IMBRUVICA® prescription?
By Your Side Insurance Specialists can help your patients without health insurance by identifying potential savings and providing information on helpful independent and external resources.
When enrolling a patient, why do I need to supply their insurance information?
Insurance information is needed for the initial benefits check and to determine eligibility for the IMBRUVICA® By Your Side Copay Card.

‡Terms and Conditions Apply. This benefit covers IMBRUVICA® (ibrutinib). Eligibility: Available only to patients with commercial insurance coverage for IMBRUVICA® who meet eligibility criteria. The form of co-pay assistance, enrollment requirements, and processes may vary. Please call 1-844-585-4135 for additional information. Co-pay assistance program is not available to patients receiving reimbursement under any federal, state, or government-funded insurance programs (for example, Medicare [including Part D], Medicare Advantage, Medigap, Medicaid, TRICARE, Department of Defense, or Veterans Affairs programs) or where prohibited by law or by the patient’s health insurance provider. If you live or receive treatment in certain states, you may not be eligible. If at any time a patient begins receiving prescription drug coverage under any such federal, state, or government-funded healthcare program, patient will no longer be able to use the IMBRUVICA® Savings Card and patient must call 1-844-585-4135 to stop participation. Co-pay assistance provided under this program may not be transferred to or utilized for the benefit of third parties, including, without limitation, third-party insurance plans and/or pharmacy benefit managers and their agents. By enrolling in the co-pay assistance program, you agree that this program is intended solely for the benefit of you, the patient. Some health plans have established programs referred to as “accumulator adjustment” or “co-pay maximizer” programs. An accumulator adjustment program is one in which payments made by you that are subsidized by manufacturer assistance do not count toward your deductibles and other out-of-pocket cost sharing limitations. Co-pay maximizers are programs in which the amount of your out-of-pocket costs is increased to reflect the availability of support offered by a manufacturer assistance program. Except where prohibited by applicable state law, if your insurance company or health plan implements either an accumulator adjustment or co-pay maximizer program, you will not be eligible for, and agree not to use, co-pay assistance because these programs are inconsistent with our agreed intent that this program is solely for your benefit. You also agree that you are personally responsible for paying any amount of co-pay required after the savings card is applied. Any out-of-pocket costs remaining after the application of the savings card may not be paid by your health plan, pharmacy benefit programs, or any other program. If you learn your insurance company or health plan has implemented either an accumulator adjustment program or a co-pay maximizer program, you agree to inform AbbVie of this fact by calling 1-844-585-4135 to discuss alternative options that may be available to support you. Subject to all other terms and conditions, the maximum annual benefit that may be available solely for the patient’s benefit under the co-pay assistance program is $24,600 per calendar year. The actual application and use of the benefit available under the co-pay assistance program may vary on a monthly, quarterly, and/or annual basis depending on each individual patient’s plan of insurance and other prescription drug costs. This co-pay assistance program is subject to change, reduction in monetary amount, or discontinuation without any notice. AbbVie in its sole discretion may unilaterally reduce or discontinue the maximum annual benefit for any reason. Patients may not seek reimbursement for value received from the IMBRUVICA® Savings Card Program from any third-party payers, including insurance plans, flexible spending plans or health savings accounts. Co-pay support made available under this program may not be used with any other coupon, discount, prescription savings card, free trial, or other offer (including any program offered by a third-party insurance plan or pharmacy benefit manager, or an agent of either, that adjusts patient cost-sharing obligations). Restrictions, including monthly maximums, may apply. This assistance offer is not health insurance. The failure to enforce any provision of these Terms and Conditions does not constitute a waiver by AbbVie of that or any other provision. By utilizing this co-pay assistance program, you hereby accept and agree to abide by these terms and conditions. Any individual or entity who enrolls or assists in the enrollment of a patient in the co-pay assistance program represents that the patient meets the eligibility criteria and other requirements described herein. Further, you agree that you currently meet the eligibility criteria and other requirements described herein every time you use the co-pay assistance program.
